42380 A Geode, used as a Cooking Vessel(? 42380 And does it not find some analogy in comparatively modern races? 42380 Are not the viscera of the digestive system the same, and are they not organised on the same plan in man as in the carnivorous animals? 42380 But did the men of the reindeer epoch make no attempts to portray their own personal appearance? 42380 But who shall enumerate the ages which have elapsed whilst these achievements have been realised? 42380 But, it will naturally be asked, on what grounds do you base this assertion? 42380 Could we, for instance, determine what amount of intellect man possessed in this earliest and ancient date of his history? 42380 Did any kind of religious worship exist among the men of the bronze epoch? 42380 Did they possess windows? 42380 Do the skeleton and the viscera make up the entire sum of the human being? 42380 Doubtless the expanding circle of thy peaceful conquests will not stop here, and who can tell how far thy sway may extend?

42380 How did he appear upon the earth, and in what spot can we mark out the earliest traces of him? 42380 How did primitive man dress himself during this epoch? 42380 How were the huts constructed, and what were their shape and dimensions? 42380 How, in the next place, were these clipped flints fitted with handles, so as to make hatchets, poniards and knives? 42380 How, then, was it possible that these bones could have found their way to such an elevated position? 42380 If a fact like this is admitted, does it not render the hypothesis absolutely worthless? 42380 In the first place, what are these_ kjoekken- moeddings_, or kitchen- middens, with their uncouth Scandinavian name? 42380 Is it actually a link between the head of the man and that of the ape? 42380 Is it not the case that in these spots the stone was the special object of work and not the handles? 42380 Is it possible, indeed, to fix this date in the epoch of the tertiary rocks? 42380 Is it, on this account, more demonstrative? 42380 Is not this fact a reason for our regarding the former animal as the ancestor of the Malays, and the latter of the African nations? 42380 Is there nothing in man but bones? 42380 It is asked if this is not a preliminary step towards the bony crests which rise in this region in some of the anthropomorphous apes? 42380 The question may be asked, what are these_ lacustrine dwellings_, and in what way do they serve to elucidate the history of the bronze epoch? 42380 The question naturally arises-- what was the mode of interment, and what was the nature of the burial- places employed by man during the bronze epoch? 42380 The question now arises, what were the characteristics of man during the reindeer epoch, with regard to his physical organisation? 42380 To what do we owe the knowledge of a multitude of curious details as to pre- historic peoples? 42380 Tool made of Reindeer Horn, found in the Cave of Laugerie- Basse( Needle?) 42380 Tool made of Reindeer Horn, found in the Cave of Laugerie- Basse( Stiletto?) 42380 Were all these_ dolmens_ originally covered by earth? 42380 What deduction can be logically drawn from the examination of one single skull? 42380 What do we meet with in these heaps? 42380 What evidence do you bring forward, and what are the elements of your proof? 42380 What might have been the population of one of these settlements? 42380 What more can be necessary to prove that man, at this epoch, was already comparatively far advanced in intellectual culture? 42380 What preparation did the corn undergo in order to render it fit for human food? 42380 What was the character of the type of the human race during the iron epoch? 42380 What was the organic type of man during this epoch? 42380 What was their origin? 42380 What will you say, then, ye blind rhetoricians, about the faculty of intelligence as manifested in the gift of speech? 42380 What, however, was the process which enabled our earliest metallurgists to extract iron from its native ore? 42380 What, in fact, does glass consist of? 42380 What, we may ask, was the wearing apparel of man during the period we are describing? 42380 Why is it, however, that the skeleton is the only point taken into consideration when analogies are sought for between man and any species of animal? 42380 Would it not therefore have been possible for an almost imperceptible modification to have ultimately led to identity? 42380 _ Arts and Manufactures._--What degree of skill in this respect was attained by the men who lived during the polished- stone epoch? 42380 and what were the ceremonies which took place at that period when they buried their dead? 27354 *****_ What, then, is the exact length of one of its basis lines?_ The sides of the pyramid have been measured by many different measurers. 27354 And could any member of the deputation give us any accurate information about our old nursery friend Fingal or Fin Mac Coul? 27354 And were not some of them military or sepulchral works? 27354 And were the people of that period in Scotland Celtic or pre- Celtic? 27354 And where, and by whom, were they manufactured? 27354 But what did they shave with?

27354Was not our city named after this Northumbrian Bretwalda,"Edwin''s- burgh?"
27354Was the vitrification of the walls accidental, or was it not rather intentional, as most of us now believe?
